Chapter 34 Older people, choose a fighting style that is more suitable for them!
who I am?
Where am I?
what happened?
In the corner of the banquet hall, Andeke, the deputy commander of the 'Freedom Army', fell into self-doubt.
He looked at Jason sitting opposite him with dull eyes, and brought up phantoms with his hands, as if thousands of arms had grown out of thin air, and put all the food that was served into his mouth.
That's right.
Just put it in your mouth.
No!
wrong!
More like inhaling it in your mouth!
That mouth is like a black hole, as long as food comes close, it will be sucked in, and then disappear completely.
Of course, this alone is not enough to make Ande doubt his life.
What really makes Ander doubt his life is that Jason not only eats fast, but also eats a lot.
A mouth like a black hole is scary?
wrong.
What's truly terrifying is that this black hole-like mouth is connected to a stomach like a bottomless abyss.
See how much Jason ate?
A thousand cans?
Or more?
What's more, Jason is still eating.
And, faster and faster.
Unconsciously, Andeko put his hands on his chest.
"I, how much inventory do we have?"
Andeke's words were squeezed out from between his teeth.
Rag on the side showed a difficult expression.
"There are less than five hundred left."
"What?"
"There are less than five hundred left?"
"During the previous count, wasn't there more than two thousand?"
Andeko's eyes widened.
Could it be that Jason ate more than 1,500 by himself?
This, this...
Enderke lost the ability to speak for a while.
"Today is a banquet. Jason only ate part of it, about nine hundred."
Lager obviously understood what Ander was thinking and immediately explained.
"More than six hundred?"
"It's okay, it's okay..."
Andeke breathed a sigh of relief.
But before the breath came out, it was stuck in the throat.
Bastard!
Why do I feel so happy and happy?
Could it be because Jason ate less than expected?
That’s more than 900 cans!
Normally, it would be enough to feed an elite team for two years!
Put it in a large area, save some money, and mix it with some food, it will be a year's extra food!
And now?
Just a meal for Jason!
What's more, he can't stop it.
It was he who made Jason let go of the food.
If he could go back two hours, he would slap himself.
Make you talk bad.
Let you pretend to be X.
Be sure to swing it left and right to hit yourself.
call!
Taking a deep breath, Andeke turned to Raghu and said, "I'm going to smoke a cigarette."
He can't stay any longer.
If you stay any longer, you'll have a heart attack!
It's too difficult.
Stumbling on his feet, Anderke walked out of the banquet hall.
He never flinched in the face of thousands of troops.
Even in the face of a life-or-death situation, I never regretted it.
Endeko, who had always been calm and composed in the face of countless assassinations, regretted it at this time and wanted to retreat.
He could not face the situation before him calmly.
He escaped.
"Hey, what did Ender do?"
"He won't eat?"
"He seems to be uncomfortable."
Lauren Delder, who had a chicken drumstick stuffed in her mouth, watched Andeko stagger away and couldn't help but ask.
"I guess I just want to be alone for a while."
The ‘old man’ who knew everything was drinking freshly brewed coffee with a smile on his face.
He was still wondering just now how Jason became so easy to talk to.
It was a 50-50 split with Anderke.
There is also some enthusiasm that I don’t have in normal times.
So that’s it!
The ‘old man’ looked at Jason as he devoured the food.
"It's hard to hide in daily life, isn't it?"
"Then eat more."
The 'old man' murmured to himself.
As for trying to dissuade Jason?
What a joke.
Jason didn't eat for free, he was paid.
What's more, the 'old man' is a person who has truly experienced hunger.
He knows how terrible hunger is.
How unbearable.
When there is no food in your stomach and only the stomach acid keeps rising, there is no strength in the whole body, the vision in front of you starts to blur, and the breathing becomes vague, there is nothing you can do. Can wait to die.
Such a taste.
Experience it once is enough.
It can no longer be called torture.
But...
despair.
The 'old man' closed his eyes, slowly exhaled a breath, and pulled himself back from his memories.
He looked at Jason again.
It was a look that looked at one's own juniors.
Very pleased.
In the "city that never sleeps" there is no saying that eating is a blessing, but there is a proverb that "the more you eat, the stronger you become".
"Bring this to Jason."
The old man pointed to the roast chicken in front of him.
Roast chicken is definitely the best delicacy in the 'city that never sleeps'.
That is far beyond canned food.
As one of the protagonists of the banquet.
Jason, 'Old Man' and Lauren Delder were given three roast chickens.
Jason's roast chicken was gone in one bite.
The 'old man' didn't move a word.
Lauren Delder tore off a chicken leg and tasted it, wishing she could chew the bones.
"Um."
Lauren Delder picked up the roast chicken in front of the old man and gave it to Jason.
Jason, who was eating, didn't have time to speak, so he just nodded.
Lauren Delder turned around and returned to her seat.
After thinking about it, he tore off the chicken legs from the roast chicken in front of him and handed them to the 'old man'.
"Taste it."
Lauren Delder said this while still swallowing.
Compared with the "Old Man" who has become the boss, Lauren Delder ate roast chicken for the first time, and the best thing she had eaten before was real canned meat.
If it had been another time, Lauren Delder would never have given the roast chicken to anyone.
However, this time is different.
He relied on Jason to survive.
The ‘old man’ is also an important partner.
He knows all this.
Therefore, he felt he should do something.
Not for anything else.
Just because, if he doesn't do something, he always feels uncomfortable.
The 'old man' was stunned and took the chicken leg.
Then, watching Lauren Delder bring the remaining roast chicken to Jason, he raised the corner of his mouth and handed the uneaten sandwich to Lauren Delder who returned.
"As I get older, I can't eat too much."
"I'll just eat a chicken leg."
"I've given you the sandwich. You'd better add some sauce. It will taste better."
The ‘old man’ said.
Lauren Delder scratched her translucent skull.
He didn't know what to say.
Finally, I took the sandwich.
I listened to the ‘old man’s’ suggestion and added more sauce.
Mmm, delicious.
Tastier than the previous one.
After finishing her sandwich, Lauren Delder touched the corner of her mouth and opened a can of real meat.
The sandwich is the same as the grilled chicken.
All are in limited supply.
However, real canned meat is well stocked.
"It's a pity there is no bread."
While eating, Lauren Delder was talking.
"Compared to bread, which is not easy to preserve, canned food is more popular."
"There is no direct channel to obtain flour in Xiacheng District, so we have to rely on Shangcheng District. The same goes for canned food. Every time flour or canned food appears, it is the time for 'gold' action."
"Those bosses, including me, are like dogs, being manipulated by each other."
The ‘old man’ laughed at himself.
At the same time, explaining to Lauren Delder.
"'Gold' is really not a thing."
Lauren Delder had never been in contact with them before, but he could guess that every time 'materials' appeared, there would be intrigues between these street bosses, and rivers of blood would flow.
During those days, canned meat was also the most abundant.
Not real canned meat.
Just canned meat.
"'Jin' is like a steward who raises livestock. He has a good grasp of our number, no more and no less."
"Before, I only thought it was a balancing act for the other party."
"And now?"
"That guy should have been preparing something for a long time."
The ‘old man’ said.
"Jason said it's a barrier, but the guys in the upper city won't be so stupid as to ignore the blossoming in the center of the lower city, right?"
Lauren Delder frowned.
Because, he thought of the black shadow on the screen.
The other party's behavior seemed to be similar to his, not very smart, and he didn't discover the true purpose of 'Jin' for so long.
No!
Even more stupid than him.
At least, he knew there should be a backup plan.
And the other party?
If Jason hadn't shown up.
I'm afraid he should be executed at this time.
"The battle...is inevitable."
While Lauren Delder was still thinking, the 'old man' suddenly spoke.
After the former was stunned for a moment, he realized that Jason had stopped at some point.
A thousand cans is just right.
It's not that I'm full.
If you continue to eat it, the entire "Freedom Army" planned plan will be disrupted.
The deputy commander of the 'Freedom Army' may even hit a wall.
Accept as soon as you see fit.
Stay on top of being a human being.
Jason understands this truth.
It's definitely not because there are six relatively powerful auras approaching in his perception.
Jason wiped his mouth, stood up and walked out.
Lauren Delder ate the heated canned meat in front of her in one gulp and chased after the ‘old man’.
Outside, Andeko got the report and was about to inform Jason.
After seeing Jason walking out, he was startled for a moment, and then said immediately.
"The 'helpers' have arrived."
"Two and a half hours, half an hour earlier than agreed. It seems that the other party is more impatient than expected."
Ender laughed a little.
Full of sarcasm.
"When it comes to your own life, people in Shangcheng District are always very quick."
The 'old man' commented.
Then, he added another sentence.
"Aren't we the same?"
"If I hadn't had your detailed information, I would have thought that you, a guy who left the 'Freedom Army', became a philosopher and was so idle in the 'Postman's House'?"
"Do you think about life every day?"
Faced with the words of his friend the 'old man', Ender couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"I'm just telling the facts that an ordinary person can see."
"Not the 'Freedom Army'."
"This is the most profound realization for me, a former 'Freedom Army' and now an ordinary person."
The 'old man' laughed.
Andeke rolled his eyes again.
Then, the deputy leader of the 'Freedom Army' who had already reached the gate on the first floor looked outside.
Six men with clean clothes, neat faces, white suits and white top hats were walking towards here, escorted by a group of "Freedom Army" soldiers.
The heads of the six people were raised slightly.
He didn't look around at all.
There was deep contempt in his eyes.
There is still a hint of...
dislike.
He seemed dissatisfied with his appearance here.
And he seemed to look down on the soldiers of the "Freedom Army" around him.
In fact, this is also the case.
Any one of these six 'facilitators' can easily kill this entire team of twelve 'Freedom Army' soldiers.
Even if they are already the elite of the 'Freedom Army'.
However, resources are the biggest problem.
Whether it’s resources like ‘mysterious knowledge’.
Whether it is the resources of 'mysterious items' that are closely related to 'mysterious knowledge', the soldiers of the 'Freedom Army' are too far behind these six people.
It is completely one sky and one earth.
It's not the same level at all.
Andeke would not deny this.
Perhaps the soldiers of their "Freedom Army" have been carefully selected, but why not these "facilitators"?
"That guy is more capable than I thought?"
With these words said, Ande walked down the steps.
He walked straight towards these six people.
While walking, he puffed on a cigar.
The cigar, which was as thick as my thumb, burned quickly.
"Andeke?"
"The person we are looking for is not you."
"It's Jason."
After the leader of the six said coldly, he took five of his subordinates and prepared to cross Andeke and walk towards Jason.
Enderke, who was still a bit aggressive at first, suddenly grinned.
Then, he just stepped aside.
The six 'facilitators' from Uptown were stunned for a moment.
Then, the contempt in his eyes grew even stronger.
Is this the deputy leader of the ‘Freedom Army’?
Nothing remarkable either.
After walking in front of Jason without any obstruction, the leader of the six people looked at Jason.
"This is the information about Area 30 that Mr. Special asked me to give you."
"When are you going to take action?"
"At least tens of thousands of people have entered District 30 now."
The other party looked at Jason on the steps with his head held high.
Such a posture makes the other person feel uncomfortable.
Therefore, the other party's brows wrinkled unconsciously.
Jason's brows also frowned.
Accurately grasped the number of people entering Area 30.
Is there someone mixed in?
Or are there any special monitoring methods?
The next moment, Jason leaned towards the latter.
Even if there are people among them, it is impossible to count the number of people so clearly.
So, is there any similar surveillance near the gate from Area 29 to Area 30?
Jason analyzed the information in the other person's words.
This indifferent attitude made the six 'helpers' furious.
The leader's face showed anger.
But then, I was stunned.
The 'old man' standing next to Jason took an elegant step forward, raised his right hand and drew circles one after another from the top of his head, and finally placed it on his chest as his body bent down.
Whether it's the trajectory of the stroke, the lightness of the fingers, or the angle of the bow, it's all perfect.
Very standard etiquette.
Faced with such etiquette, the six 'facilitators' from the uptown area almost instinctively took off their hats and bent down to return the greeting.
They won't let the monkeys in the lower city take them lightly.
You must prove your etiquette.
Then, at the moment when six people bowed in return,
The smoke arm next to Andeko hit him directly.
The thread flashed in Lauren Delder's hand.
Jason raised his hand and clenched his fist.
The soldiers of the surrounding "Freedom Army" even raised their guns and pulled the triggers.
